Description

Princeton, NJ: Princeton University Press; Bollingen Ser. XLVII, 1972 7th printing, 1991. Near fine. Tight, clean copy. Age toning. Jungian study. "Neumann examines how the Feminine has been experienced and expressed in many cultures from prehistory to our own time. Appearing as goddess and demon, gate and pillar, garden and tree, hovering sky and containing vessel, the Feminine is seen as an essential factor in the dialectical relation of individual consciousness, symbolized by the child, to the ungraspable matrix, symbolized by the Great Mother." - Publisher..
